I've liked your post, but wish there was a sad button, because this it is incredibly sad that such abuse is made in the first place and secondly, there is nothing you can do to report it.PaddyP17 said:Secondary annoyance: the enshittification of the X platform that means I can't report this6 -
He also got one about being deported. All very grim.As @cantersaddick succinctly put on our group chat though…
“Valid but nothing to do with your race. Just because you're annoying.”

Thanks @stig.
I did think about creating a thread titled, 'Herd Mentality' but decided against but I think that, 'Herd Mentality or the power of the group,' can be a problem for some on this forum, if you don't go with the concensus of opinion, then lo and behold, put your tin hat on and wait for the flak;).
Personally, I prefer differences (not abuse), it can be where learning and thinking can be had and understanding of different points of view can be experienced, all beneficial IMHO.
Sadly, for some on here, it's their way or the highway.

Just noticed,the concert is on the same night England play Croatia,ffs.thickandthin63 said:
A friend came by last night,I mentioned the problem,5 minutes later I had the AXS app on my phone,and my tickets where there in all their glory,very east,piece of cake ,dont know what all the panic was about.thickandthin63 said:
I have been in contact with 02 and they can do it on the door,so all should be ok,cheers for good wishesArsenetatters said:
Went to a Barry Manilow concert many years ago (40?). Thoroughly enjoyable.thickandthin63 said:
It was my idea,the wife loves him,and we have seen him several times before,he does to fair put on a great show ,although at 82 and recently recovered from lung cancer things might not be quite as they used to be.gringo said:
Just say you cant print the tickets, say you will make it up to her, and avoid a night of Manilow nightmare.thickandthin63 said:Some months ago,I purchased tickets for a Barry Manilow concert at the 02, as a 60th wedding gift for my wife.I did not ask how the tickets would be sent to me,so just assumes an email which i could print,oh no,I have to open an app,download this,upload that open profile blah blah blah.I am fucked havent got a clue,am seeking help from a friend who can probably help,but will still be living in fear on the night of phone going wrong,pressing wrong buttons,etc,really wish I had not bothered,will not be booking any more concerts.I booked up for an Einaudi concert recently and had the same problem as you. A friend managed to sort the app for me but I was worried it wouldn’t work at the door. It was fine but if your friend can’t help I would go to the venue to have them printed if they do that (phone first).I hope you have a lovely time.3 -

Anyway for me it's when cars try and get through a set of lights and are still across the pedestrian crossing when the lights change and the man goes green and the car is sat there like a WALLY and you have to walk behind or in front of that car thus making it a minor inconvenience when crossing the road
(more because I know visually impaired people who will now have to wait 2 mins for the light cycle to go round again cos their dog quite correctly won't cross when there's a hazard on the crossing)3 -
Idiot on a bike yesterday. Hard to describe, so I have done a little diagram...
So, said idiot is just in front of my car and I am going right. Right next to the bend is a pedestrian crossing.
Idiot starts to go right, as do I. Then, without either signaling, stopping or so much as a glance over his shoulder, he swerves left and rides over the crossing...
Some people deserve to get knocked over.
Luckily I had my wits about me and hit the brakes in time.2 -
Why were you driving on the wrong side of the road?5

Drivers of large vehicles who fill the road and expect you to get out of the way for them.We live in a country lane. I arrive back home to find the Sainsbury's van parked across our drive as he was delivering to us. That's fine. So I decide to pull in further up the lane. Meanwhile a twat in a Motorhome towing a caravan drives up right behind me. He gets out and tells me to reverse into our neighbour's drive so he can get past. Feeling pressured I attempt to reverse but need another go. As I'm attempting this the neighbour's gardener comes out and stands completely in the way with the hedge trimmer. I'm pretty stressed now and spotting Mr Tatters at our front door I abandon the van and leave it to him.There's a massive road called the A20 where twat and his motorhome convoy could have easily gone.

Should have pit his windows through A1

Motor homes are a fecking nightmare here too.
The roads in Ireland just aren’t suitable for them. Was stuck behind one on the way home yesterday going at 30km in an 80. There must have been 20 cars behind him. Did he pull over at all? No. I’m lucky that I knew a safe passing place was coming up ahead & the beauty of my EV meant I could put my foot down & nip past him quickly. But no one else could.

They are much less of a nightmare when parked up on a close relatives driveway (at least initially).KBslittlesis said:Motor homes are a fecking nightmare here too.

I'm turning right (3rd exit) on a 2 lane roundabout, right-hand signal on and in the inside lane on said roundabout . The amount of drivers turning left waiting at entrance 2 that just pull out . Last time I checked, even when busy, you give way to all traffic from the right.1
